Seaside High School offers a great variety of clubs and activities to meet the needs of our diverse student body. School clubs play a vital role in the development of young adults and provide great learning and social environments for students to grow.

The Asian Culture Club wants to share the wonderful cultures that make up Asia to the student body of Seaside High. This student lead group promotes cultural pride and its impact on the overall culture of the United States through cuisine, art, and cultural events.

The purpose of the Black Student Union, BSU, is to promote activities of interest, as well as educational and cultural benefits for the African American student body at SHS. The BSU also acts as the "face" of many of the cultural student organizations, providing a forum for all students of culture to voice their differences, goals, and ideas. At SHS we hope to encourage cooperation between our members and the African American student body as a whole.

The Seaside High Team Debate Team promotes high school speech and debate activities as a means to develop a student’s essential life skills and values. Our vision is that every child will be empowered to become an effective communicator, ethical individual, critical thinker, and leader in a democratic society. We are part of the Coast Forensic League. The Coast Forensic League is one of two Speech and Debate local leagues that make up Area I of the California High School Speech Association. This league represents coastal schools as far north as San Francisco and as far south as Seaside.

While silent students bring awareness to our campus community.
